Could I do this?

I'm really interested in taking out the £85 VIP kit. Anyways, I know it has an additional STB. Could I get another one too? Like 3 boxs, 2 normal and 1 V+. And, pay an additional £5 a month plus the £85?

Yeah, that should be fine. Ask CS though to be certain.

Re: Could I do this?

What about those who already have 2 additional boxes??

If I were to get the VIP package - I would need a V+ Box installed.

Would the first additional box be brought in under the VIP pack, and the second box be charged £5 per month instead of £15 as it is now??

Also would I be charged £75 for the installation if I did not want the existing box relocated elsewhere??

I was aware that there used to be a maximum of 3 STBs permitted in any one address?!! Is this moratorium still in effect?? If it is, surely it would be unfair of VM to charge an installation charge if you arent allowed anymore boxes in your house!??

Any Ideas?

best thing you can do is ring up and ask.The problem seems to be that different people are getting different answers from cs,so there may not be a set rule on this one,just a guideline.

Re: Could I do this?

if you speak to the right person, you can get a free install as with your question yes how you have displayed is right the way the billing system works and the discount codes it would only be an extra £5 for the additional boxes hence totaling £95

B3rti, thanks for the reply (I assume it was meant for me!??)

Just a quick query - If the VIP Package is £85 and includes a V+ Box and a V Box, surely the third box would be £5 (as you agree). Therefore the total would be £90 per month!??

Just checkin!!
